    In the military, when you have to take a randon **** test, you have to be there until you can produce some ****. Chavez Jr. packed on a lot of water weight after the weigh in, so it's hard to believe that he would be unable to produce urine. Should fighters not be sallowed to fight until they take the test? It seems only fair.

    Why is it that where Bob Arum and Freddie Roach are, questions and conspiracy is also? If the crap ever hits the fan, there will be a lot of tainted legacies.

    There is just something about Ariza that just spells illegal. His fighters seem to transform themselves into superfighters very quickly. Maybe they are being given something that was undetectable at one time that may be detectable now. I don't know. All I know is that something odd went on last night, and the commission should have been looking at Chavez just for his refusal of weighing his gloves.
    Why didn't Steward just say his fighter wouldn't fight unless Chavez took the **** test?

    I'm not going to jump on the hatewagon here but as long as Jnr has Arum and Sulaiman in his corner,he'll have nothing to worry about as far as this goes.
    But the guys above are right,I see a big story a few years down the line.
    But the current crop will probably have enough to pay for and ensure silence for their peak years.

    If drug tests are part of your contracted fight and are required by said commision then they should hold him there until he can provide a sample...

    Otherwise the comissions are useless...

    Well, the commissions are useless, then.

    I don't think it's about hate, it's about trying to get answers to questions being raised because of liberties being given to one fighter and not to the other.

    They should just change the decision to a NC... That would teach him

    Sorry mate,I was only pointing out that I don't hate the guy so no one who disagrees that there's something wrong can accuse me of being a "hater"
    Should have clarified that.

    I was thinking the same thing. I would also grant Lee a rematch if he wanted it.
